Charter Bus Rentals for School Field Trips in Minot, North Dakota

Affordable Bus Rentals for Every School Budget

We know that budget is always a concern for educators and administrators—which is why we offer some of the most competitive and transparent pricing on school bus rentals in Minot. When you request a quote, we’ll give you a single upfront price that includes the bus, driver, mileage, and all standard amenities. If you need to keep costs down, we can suggest smaller vehicles, off-peak travel times, or other ways to make the most of your transportation dollars.

At the same time, we never cut corners on quality. Every bus in our fleet meets rigorous federal and state standards, and we pay drivers professional wages so you get the highest level of service. Many PTA groups, booster clubs, and school districts in Ward County choose us because they know they’re getting the best possible value for their students.

Modern Buses That Keep Kids Engaged

Old yellow school buses can’t compete with the technology and comfort features on a modern charter bus—and those extras make a real difference in student behavior during the ride. Flat-screen monitors at every row let you broadcast an educational documentary, review game film for athletics, or just put on a movie to keep the cabin quiet. Fast onboard Wi-Fi means tablets and Chromebooks can access Google Classroom, Kahoot! quizzes, or Zoom calls with a guest speaker while rolling down US-83. Power outlets and USB ports ensure devices stay charged for the return trip.

For overnight trips—such as sending the Minot High marching band to a regional competition or the varsity basketball team to state playoffs—a charter coach’s reclining seats and climate control help everyone rest so they arrive refreshed. Full-length luggage bays accommodate suitcases, instrument cases, coolers, and even large equipment like robotics kits or stage props without crowding the aisle.

Onboard Comforts That Make a Difference

Anyone who’s ever ridden six hours to the Twin Cities on a bench seat knows how much it matters to have the right bus. Our charter coaches offer reclining seats with footrests, individual reading lights, and strong HVAC systems that keep the cabin comfortable whether you’re crossing the prairie in January or June. Headrests and armrests help students relax or nap en route, so they arrive rested instead of restless. For overnight trips—like band competitions or DECA conferences—we can run movies on HD screens to pass the time, while floor-mounted cup holders and fold-out tray tables make it easier to serve snacks without spills.

One of the biggest quality-of-life upgrades over a traditional yellow bus is the onboard restroom. Having a lavatory means you don’t have to unload the entire group at a gas station every 90 minutes—cutting hours off a round-trip to Fargo or Bismarck and reducing opportunities for distraction or incidents. For day trips within Minot, features like tinted windows and insulated walls keep noise and glare down, so teachers can brief students on plans or expectations without shouting.

Custom Itineraries for Any Destination

No two field trips are exactly alike, which is why we build custom itineraries around your specific schedule and destination. Popular local options include half-day excursions to the Roosevelt Park Zoo, where elementary classes can tour exhibits and attend a zookeeper talk; art walks through downtown galleries for high school visual arts programs; or STEM outings to the Magic City Discovery Center, with its hands-on science displays.

Need something outside city limits? We regularly send groups to the Scandinavian Heritage Park for cultural festivals, organize nature hikes at Oak Park or the Turtle Mountain reservation, and even handle cross-state journeys to Fargo museums or Medora musical theater productions. Just send us your timetable, and we’ll make sure your bus is staged at the right pick-up location—whether that’s the school parking lot, a church, or the Minot Municipal Auditorium—ready to depart on time.
